Former UH receiver Deontay Greenberry signs with Dallas Cowboys

University of Houston receiver Deontay Greenberry has signed with the Dallas Cowboys as an undrafted free agent, a source with knowledge of the process said Saturday night.

Greenberry was not taken in the seven-round draft after opting to skip his senior season.

Greenberry is going back to the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex where he had one of his most memorable games, scoring two touchdowns and the game-winning two-point conversion – all in the final 3 minutes, 41 seconds – as UH rallied from a 25-point fourth-quarter deficit to beat Pittsburgh 35-34 in the Lockheed Martin Armed Forces Bowl.

Greenberry enjoyed his best season as a sophomore in 2013, when he led the American Athletic Conference in receptions (82) and yards (1,202) and was second in touchdowns (11).

Although his production dipped slightly last season, Greenberry still finished with respectable numbers: 72 receptions, 841 yards and six touchdowns. He struggled, however, with 11 dropped passes that tied for second most in Football Bowl Subdivision.
